never Troy never know

#celebratewithtrip Troy is one of the most famous cities of Ancient World. City was subject to Legends Iliad and Odyssey of Homer. If you are around Canakkale you must see Troy. Troy is thirty minutes out of Çanakkale near the mouth of the Dardanelles. Most of the parts of city is underground and not excavated. It's a place full of different period of history throughout the centuries and milleniums, all visible in the layers of ruins! The nine levels of Troy are well documented and easy to follow. The Roman amphitheatre is very well preserved. We can see the troy ruins at site and we can also see part of objects at the archeological museum in Istanbul. There are a number of ruins in various parts of excavation and work is still on going. It was mesmerising walking close to the walls of a city. And of course the highlight, there is a replica of the Trojan horse and anyone can climb inside. And yes, we managed to get ourselves inside too. A must visit place and truly enjoyable !! Tips 1. Strongly recommend to engage a knowledgable guide for the visit. 2. Some reading on Troy/Troia history, or watch any Trojan War movie before visiting, will make the trip more interesting too. 3. On a hot day, it can be quite warm, so bring water, hat, sunscreen as there are not a lot of shady spots. #celebratewithtrip #awesomepic #summervacation #ancientcity #ancient_city #turkeytravel #turkey #vacation #travel
